The broadcast part is what matters, not the character limit. A normal SMS message has just one recipient, maybe a few more for a group MMS, but a Tweet goes out to the world wide web. Although Twitter was designed such that it could be used via SMS, that never defined the purpose of the platform, and changes to the SMS protocol do not obsolete Twitter's use case.

Funny, because I still say the sequels aren't as bad as the prequels.

Yamai Ren. The character whose entire gimmick is that her horrible behavior is played off with "it's funny because she's a lesbian."

Well perhaps they could do a movie focused on Violet working with another client, since that's where the show always shined best. Maybe she should could tutor a young girl at a private academy or something. That might make for a good enough movie.

If you're specifically looking for shows to watch with your daughter, I would highly recommend Little Witch Academia for that demographic.

Komi-san is a great show whenever one particular character is not onscreen, but the parts where that character is onscreen mean I don't think it can go on this list.

Unfortunately, the movie is a lot less ambiguous.

But also the movie doesn't exist lalalala it never happened lalalala I can't hear you

She's a 1000 year old adult. At no point is she ever portrayed as anything remotely childlike.

It honestly fucking sucks that just because this trope exists elsewhere, a show like Frieren can't tell a serious story about what it's like to outlive everyone around you without being mistaken for this trope.

I do think there are valuable conversations to be had about the concept of a creature that is considered ontologically evil and wholly irredeemable.

But I also think reducing that conversation to "Frieren bad" sucks.

If you've been keeping count, I'm curious to see your data.

Obviously it depends on what games you want to play.

The one point I will mention in the Switch's favor is that I feel like it's a much better handheld. It's a lot lighter and I like the feel of the JoyCons better (or I did until mine went bad, we'll see how durable S2 JoyCons are). Still, both are ultimately too bulky for me to take on the go, instead I bought a Miyoo Mini Plus on sale and that's become my portable while the Deck gathers dust and the Switch no longer leaves the dock.
